He Say She Say. This is the type of song that narrows that large gap between us all, even if for a moment. It's easy to find yourself stuck and alone when there's shit happening between your parents and you're just a kid. This song reaches out to a lot of people. A lot of people saying their whole life is in this song. Even some people saying it helped mend their own relationships with their parents. With a beautiful beat and a powerful approach what more can you ask from one song?

So many to chose a favorite; I like them all! I'll go with "Hip-Hop Saved My Life". That song's got great story-like lyrics and a wonderful hook by Nikki Jean. I could listen to it all day and still not be tired of it.

The Show Goes On, not because everyone likes it because that normally steers me away from a song, but because it reminds me that no matter my troubles, life still is going on for everyone else. Whether I have a big test or have to get surgery or my Aunty just died, the show goes on. Great music, beat, words, and as always, Lupe address problems for all people and motivates us to strive for more.

Day dreamin because it has a great beat, fantastic lyrics (love that first verse)
Prolly my favorite rap song of all time.
I love every Lupe song ever. From mixtapes to Lasers
But if we talking Lasers my favorite is Til I Get There because of this line:
If I could block em out then I could knock em out and dance around the ring
But until then I'll sing"

'Kick Push'. This is because when I saw Lupe perform it live at The Big Day Out in Adelaide, in 2009, I swear my heart stopped beating for the whole song. The performance was amazing, I have never seen anything like it. The whole crowd loved it and bounced along to the beat, while singing at the top of their lungs, I'll never forget it.

"Till I Get There" would be my favorite because of the strong message. I was afraid of changing into someone I don't want to become, I needed an answer and the last verse of this strong hit me so hard.
"Something I was taught, something I had lost
If you are afraid, or fear that you gon' change some
All you gotta do is just remember where you came from"
Don't ever forget where you came from, be yourself, don't lose yourself, be a LASER.

My fave is The Show Goes On, I know it's kinda the big one in lasers but come on!
First off it's a remake of my favourite song ever (Float On by Modest Mouse), a song that I've listened to in one of the hardest moments of my life (First serious gf breaking up with me) and I probably listened to float on a million times trying to convey the message. Secondly, the message in this song is also a message that helps me through some hard stuff, school and love again (oh the hopeless romantic I am) and is a song that is just amazing, beat, lyrics everything about it, just like Lupe himself. Another bonus is that I was once in my car with this girl that i really really like and as soon as we started getting it on, the song came on and made things even better (she wasn't a lupe fan but whatever that's her fault).
I also love Sunshine, good description of a crush and the line "Do this one thing for me outta the trillions of numbers that's in the world Just leave me a few that lead to you" is probably the best pickup line i've heard. The second verse too is pretty fucking amazing.

H.A.M. Freestyle - i havent seen a single post about this freestyle? does no one else like it???? my boy lupe shows he can freestyle better than anyone to come on tim westwood and spit! Its not really an official song but i have it on my ipod and its so sick, if you havent heard it listen to it now. Picked this song because it really shows off lupe's talent to create amazing music on the spot. Look at other's westwood freestyle and compare it to lupe's.. anyone who thinks lil wayne is good can hop offff cause he couldnt even put 2 lines together and lupe put together a whole song. HAM FREESTYLE IS SO DOPE. ive been listening to you since your first album and i wont stop listening to you. id love to get your autograph ALSO THE SONG SCREAM IN CONCERT WAS SICK. Favorite song of all time would be "He say, She Say"

Damn! Put yo on game is poetry!! i almost used that song as a poem for english class. Iight imma say Put you on game is my favourite. Lets see, outstanding breath control, imagery for days! Personifying the concept of the game into a walking demon who ran the world basically and rode around on a stray bullet lol. " you should watch on tv how they should properly depict ya the river shall flow with liquors quench your thirst on my elixers I am the safe haven for the rebel runaway and the resiter" favourite line simply because he didnt take one breath the whole time and whenver i say that part I run out of breath lol. But this showed that he put effort and thought into his music, and he uses the mind of a true artist and lyricist and as a poet and writer all mixed into a beautiful song! BEST RAPPER ALIVE!

My fave song from Mr. Fiasco has got to be "Words I Never Said". I love his the way he speaks his mind through music and not many rappers achieve this. He speaks for the people and I love the approach he gives to let us know that we have a voice and it must be heard. Also, i listen to this song on my way to my AP World class and i must say, never have i ever been so attentive until I've heard this song. Also it puts me in a positive mood throughout the whole day. It inspires me to be who i truly want to be and only my voice matters and i believe this was his goal. Congrats Lupe...you have done just that.
